@middleagedpunkrocker You can't beat the old iron. Love em!! I do not have one... YET! Ride hard, or go home!! take it easy.

@jamn83 Cant argue with you there. I work the parts counter at a Dealership and see it all the time. "Old Skool Scooter Tramps" are a rare breed but I see the mentality in a lot of younger Dudes. Its something you are born with and like minded people gravitate to each other. I try to spread what I have learned and lived to My Son and others. I have my Sons promise that after Im dead, He will ride my Pan for the rest of his life and pass it to his son. I want My Panhead to stay here in the USA!

@whiskeywilliams I live in the U.S.A and Own a 1951EL that I ride the shit out of. The Biker culture is still alive and well here, you just gotta sift through the yuppies!!!!

@tellmeitsnottaken I kno right? The japs dont seem to have those poisonous egos, so they dont get flamboyant with the rear wheels and chrome etc, and end up building such badass bikes!

@utoob92 One of Americas biggest military bases is in Okinawa. So you had guys stationed over there buying them shipping them over to have some fun on.
-
@juanmitbol believe me they have quite a few of the flamer bikes over their too

@tellmeitsnottaken My dad's not Japanese.
Japanese guys always have the most badass bikes.

@utoob92 Read the other comments. They were shipped over from America. It's probably a good thing cause all us Americans would have done was restored them and turned them into nice shiny statues. Whereas these Basara MC cats and their Japanese biker brothers are riding the living hell out of them like it should be! They are pretty much living how our biker culture got started, but in the 2000s instead of the 50s-70s.
